Trump famously hangs fake Time magazine covers featuring himself all over his golf club resorts. As president, he’s now been on the cover six times, and none of them are likely to hang proudly anywhere Trump can see them.

All six covers have highlighted the disaster of Trump’s presidency: the lies, the chaos, the dictatorial acts and statements, the praise of foreign dictators, the cruelty of his family separation policy, and now his hero worship of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Each has been timely and beautifully rendered, although none are likely to make Trump all that happy.

Trump’s behavior and public statements while in Russia with Putin has earned him not only more backlash than possibly anything else he’s done, but sparked cries of treason and traitorous acts. While we must be at war with another country for the accusation of treason to be accurate, Trump’s siding with a foreign government leader over his own government and willingness to hand over American citizens to that leader for interrogation with no proof that they actually committed any crimes are definitely edging on traitorous.

While every president has faced criticism, and Trump has faced more criticism than most, his recent actions have outraged every sane American. His policies of separating and detaining even the youngest of infants and toddlers from their families, his choice of a SCOTUS pick who believes that presidents can’t be indicted and independent counsels are unconstitutional, and especially his kowtowing to foreign adversaries have all but destroyed any credibility or belief that Trump has America’s best interests at heart.
